As per the admin email I sent out this morning, we're now in the final year of SquadronOfShame.com, and so I wanted to provide a suitable thread for anyone who felt that way inclined to share their new digs and invite former Squadmates to check out what they've been up to.

I have several projects on the go:

MoeGamer - My flagship site, featuring over 800 distinctly Squad-inspired articles about overlooked and underappreciated games, new and old. Similar to the old Squad Missions, I pick a "Cover Game" to focus on at a time, and complement this with smaller, one-shot or ongoing coverage of various other titles. https://moegamer.net

Atari A to Z - One of my newer projects, exploring the libraries of the Atari 8-bit and ST computers, plus the Atari Flashback Classics collection for Nintendo Switch, via video. Start at A, go to Z, repeat forever! https://atariatoz.wordpress.com

YouTube - I've been a lot more active on YouTube of late... I've come a long way since that trailer I made 10+ years ago! Currently I'm running a series of themed "Let's Play" videos each week, plus the Atari A to Z videos three days a week. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaUNt3XWVlWfslXbqM7_vkQ

I hope you'll consider stopping by and supporting my work! These projects have become a really key part of how I enjoy the gaming hobby as a whole, so it would be great to see some familiar faces exploring them.

Take care of yourselves, everyone, and I'll hopefully see you around soon.

I am glad I followed the Twitter beacon here. Feeling the need to jump in before the lights turn off.

Recently, again thanks to twitter, I was able to jump into the Exploding Barrel Podcast discord ( https://discordapp.com/invite/rSpGkk8 ). Its the squad water-cooler gaming discussion of choice so far, and I have seen a few familiar faces hop around there.

Since discord offers a robust enough platform for both text and voice chat, I think most of my interactions have moved onto there.Not sure if MoeGamer, TOFT, etc. are all on there, but I would add them to my discord list for sure.

As for my own exploits: https://www.twitch.tv/mrn1ckers (restreamed to Mixer and youtube)I stream every week on twitch, sometimes 2-3 times a week, most regularly Saturdays at 10pm EST.So far I play a lot of CRPG's with a dash of multiplayer shenanigans with old high school chums.Usually only a sporadic viewership, mainly because true to squad form I mostly play the cult classics.Feel free to join me though, I always enjoy connecting with folks, especially old friends.
